This past Saturday I had my first panic attack. It was 3:30 in the morning. I didn’t want to try to wake anyone or see who is awake. So that made it worse. But anyway, I went online to look at how to calm yourself and one of the methods I found was to write down your worries.

This was the best thing ever! I conceptualized my problems on paper. Wrote down pros and cons. Created possible solutions. And made a to-do list.

For me, tumblr serves as a tool to release those thoughts as well. I post as a form of therapeutic treatment. Not as a form of public display. But these post are public for a reason. It feels good to write. But it feels good to write to people who care about you, like a letter. Or people who might be going through the same thing because then you’ll be able to get even more opinions!

But no more rambling. I just wanted to say thank you to those who read these. And thank you to those who check up on me. The real world can get lonely and dark. It’s nice to have a place where the light shines on you for a moment.
